Aroused by Duke Nukem

Anyone else?

I vividly remember playing Duke Nukem when I was little... like, really little. So you can guess I've been anticipiating the Duke Nukem Forever release all decade long. I've watched every trailer and read almost every articles on the game, and I get excited... like, seriously excited... every time another little detail gets revealed.

Another anticipated title that's having this effect on me; Batman: Arkham City... which reminds me; I preordered Arkham Asylum figures in February... said they were supposed to come out in March... and they're not here yet >.> I'm gonna go figure out why.

Stupid Comment (but at least I'm paying attention)

On a non-smartass note, this blog has me wondering where my Metal Gear figures are. I say this because I dropped some serious coin on them and used to proudly display them on my PS1/PS2. Anyways, Imma go google the Batman figurines just to see what you're talkin bout.

Oh, before I post comment I have to mention the new pennyarcade.com strip about Duke they posted this week. Go check it out for a chuckle or two. Even my wife laughed and she barely knows what a Duke Nukem is.

I?m Skeptical

I also have fond memories of Duke Nukem, but I fear that Duke Nukem Forever will fall short of what I remember and enjoyed. What I enjoyed about Duke the most was playing the game co-op. It was the precursor to Halo for me. Since money is tight I probably won’t be picking this game up until there is a major Steam sale. And congratulations on getting the honorable mention on the blog contest.

Aw, thanks

I can't imagine it being the same as it was. I especially don't recall school-girls in the old game O.o But I think it might be fun in its own right - I have a knack for being able to separate sequels from their predecessors in order to enjoy them as if they were a stand-alone game... sometimes that helps. :) I know as I look forward to BioShock Infinite I already feel like Infinite might as well be a game of its own, and they only slapped the "Bioshock" title on it because of how well that title sold... and I'm not sure Irrational Games has done anything else yet... >.>
